?OMG...you just gave me life GeorgiaNurse2018! I’m praying to the high heavens that I get in. Especially since I only applied for Vandy...again.

Undergraduate: 3.5
Graduate: 3.5
Prereqs: 3.6

I decided to apply last minute. I emailed the school and they said they are still accepting apps. Any advice?

Hi KaitlinC! What program did you apply to?

Pre specialty FNP, but I emailed them specially about that and they said they’re still taking apps

Oh ok, the only advice that I can give is to remain positive and optimistic. I know of others who have applied after the deadline (including myself) and received an interview and was even waitlisted. I do not know much about prespecialty FNP. For instance, how many students apply on average, how many seats are for prespecialty students, etc. I was told by a friend that they do not interview students as part of the admission process. Maybe others in this forum can provide more specifics than I can.
Good luck!!!

I applied as a direct entry BSN student to the FNP program and have not heard anything. My application still reads as "submitted" on the application management portal.
From what I have read FNP students will not receive interviews so it isn't uncommon for FNP applicants to not hear anything until Vandy begins to send out acceptance notifications.
